CRUX-Compress: Skill for Cursor

CRUX Skill: Memory Meditation — Adversarial Review

Implements the mandatory Adversarial Review function: quality gate over all editable meditation outputs across 13 dimensions, severity classification, ≤3-iteration loop with ESCALATE semantics, Pattern-B escalation with mandatory context field, and the Report-Skill Respawn Protocol (K9 + K10b) for Dim 13 findings.

When to Use

Load this skill when:

• The crux-cursor-meditation-guide agent is spawned in Adversarial Review function (a sub-mode of Meditate) at step 10 of the depth-0 manager workflow
• You are a fresh reviewer agent (new, clean context — no inherited assumptions from the depth-0 manager or any branch agent)
• reviewerIteration ∈ {1, 2, 3} is set in the spawn prompt

Never load this skill in Research mode, Quick mode, Ensemble Aggregation mode, or Report generation — those are owned by their respective skill files.

Input Parameters (Adversarial Review invocation)

meditateMode: "research" | "quick"   # mode of the meditation under review
reviewerIteration: 1 | 2 | 3         # 1-indexed, capped at 3
workingDir: "<absolute path to the meditation working directory>"
theming: { ... }                      # so the reviewer can flag homogenisation drift — REQUIRED
comprehensiveness: { ... }            # so the reviewer can check level-conditional minima — REQUIRED
modelStrategy: { ... }                # propagated unchanged by every spawn — REQUIRED (consistent with the propagation rule in the meditation-guide agent). The reviewer does not itself spawn model-specific children, but the payload is recorded in the review document for audit (e.g. "reviewer ran on caller's model because modelStrategy.mode == per_branch")
priorReviewPath: null | "<path>"      # path to previous iteration's review document

Editable, Read-Only, and Never-Touched File Lists

The reviewer reads — but is the only agent permitted to rewrite during the cycle — the following files:

• Editable (can rewrite): facets.md, consolidation.md, every branch-*-depth-*-sub-*-*.md, every branch-*-peer-review-*.md
• Read-only (no rewrite): facet-registry.yml, citations-index.yml (Research mode only), init-suggestions-{ts}.yml, finalisation-enhancements.yml
• Never touched by the reviewer: report-*.html, report-*.pdf, .facet-registry.lock/, facets-pending-*.yml, pending-facets-*.yml, confirmed-facets-*.yml
